So I installed the plugin and it is awesome, but when a user who is not signed in clicks the 'Log In" under the vote count then it prompt them to the normal login + a two factor authentication below. I am afraid that the two factor authentication text box might confuse my users. When clicking the ot…

I had a user that was confused by a two factor prompt as well. I don’t think that the voting plugin is installed.

Can you explain that last sentence again please? I definitely have the plugin installed.

@featheredtoast why is two factor auth showing up here?

If it helps, here is the link to my forum https://forum.milehighhub.com and a link to a post with voting enabled so you can see the two factor auth popping up https://forum.milehighhub.com/t/testttttt/50

I’m digging in - Looks like there are different results of showing the login modal from the builtin login button vs the plugin’s. Two factor is being shown because it’s missing some css rules due to the different html structure. The entire login layout gets screwed up here, including social login bu…

Looks like the login modal is not happy in general if not called from the parent route. Fixed here :kiwi_fruit: https://github.com/discourse/discourse-voting/commit/1aeac944a8055a4a1356aa9281551563af030a1c @pfaffman if there was another plugin in addition to this one that was calling showModal, th…

Thanks, @featheredtoast . Is this how I’d find out? find . -type f -exec grep -l showModal \{\} \; ./discourse-local-dates/assets/javascripts/initializers/discourse-local-dates.js.es6 ./discourse-staff-notes/assets/javascripts/discourse-staff-notes/lib/staff-notes.js.es6 ./poll/assets/javascripts/i…

It’s a start - To clarify, a showModal call by itself is fine, but the login modal specifically has a few hooks that also need to be triggered in order to display correctly. You’d get less false positives by filtering specifically on showModal('login') or showModal("login").

Thanks for figuring out the bug! Can I ask how I implement your fix? Or will the fix be automatically applied to my forum once the plugin is updated? Thanks!
